| 74. The Alchemy of Presence with Michael Gungor | 22 avr. 2026 | 02:00:27 | |
In this episode, Michael Gungor (musician, author, and philosopher) joins me, Dr. Neel Bulchandani, to discuss the subtleties and layers of creative and spiritual life. From the "Eddies" of our personality to the "Hurricane" of our emotions, Michael and I explore how to move from a state of lack and "torsional debt" into a life of integrated presence. This episode explores the intersection of music, the Enneagram, somatic healing, and the profound simplicity of "being here." Michael Gungor is a creative mystic living in Pasadena, California. Primarily known for his music, Gungor is the co-founder and primary songwriter of the eclectic indie band Gungor. The group's acclaimed albums blend elements of folk, rock, electronic, and world music, with Gungor's thoughtful, introspective lyrics exploring the divinity of the human experience. Gungor began his musical career writing worship music for the church, inspired by his Christian upbringing. However, as his own spiritual perspective expanded and evolved, so too did his artistic experimentation. Aside from his work under his musical moniker, Gungor, Michael has also released three ambient instrumental albums with his friend and bandmate Tyler Chester as โOn Earthโ, as well as an experimental side project called โWeiwu.โ Beyond his music, Gungor is also the co-founder of the popular The Liturgists podcast, which brings together diverse guests for honest, thought-provoking conversations about faith, science, art, and the nature of the divine. He also has a second podcast exclusively focused on non dual spirituality called โLoving This.โ In addition to his musical and podcast endeavors, Gungor has co-written songs for other artists, produced records, and created music for film and television. He is also an author, having published a book in 2010 titled "THIS: Becoming Free." An acclaimed live performer, Gungor and his band have toured extensively, building a devoted fanbase around the world. His music has earned him multiple Grammy nominations and numerous other accolades, cementing his status as a unique and influential creative force.

| 73. How to Align Consciousness with Unconsciousness with Jesse Coomer | 15 avr. 2026 | 01:36:47 | |
In this long awaited episode of the Compromised to Alchemized podcast, I sit down with breathwork expert and author Jesse Coomer to explore the "anatomy of consciousness" and the evolution of human connection. As "Xennials," we look back at the technological shift of the late '90s, the Y2K hysteria, and how growing up in a world of dial-up modems shaped their unconscious perspective on change and resilience. We dive deep into the "inner universe," discussing the relationship between the conscious and unconscious mind, and why getting to know yourself often requires a circle of honest friends. We explore the massive shifts in human history, from the discovery of fire to the rise of artificial intelligence. When we invented fire, we outsourced digestion. By cooking our food, we freed up biological energy, altered our facial structures, and created the "lunch hour"โultimately building civilization in the time we used to spend chewing. Now, as "Xennials" standing on the precipice of the AI revolution, we are undergoing a second great outsourcing: The outsourcing of thinking. Jesse discusses the critical need for a new "language of breath" to keep our conscious and unconscious minds in alignment. We transcend the mechanics of the body to explore the vast "emotional landscape" of human potential. Jesse delves into his "Personal Legend"โa concept inspired by Paulo Coelhoโs The Alchemistโrevealing that his purpose isnโt to be the hero of the story, but the "Yoda" or "Big Brother" who guides others to their own treasure. Jesse Coomer is a renowned breathwork authority, founder of the Breathwork Tactics program, author of numerous influential breathwork books, educational Youtuber, and as co-founder & lead faculty at The Language of Breath Breathworker School, he trains future breathwork coaches. Jesseโs scientifically grounded approach to breath training caters to a diverse audience, including first responders, athletes, and CEOs. His programs enhance focus, decision-making, and overall well-being, offering specialized techniques for stress management, performance improvement, and recovery. His evidence-based methods set a high standard in breathwork, reflecting a commitment to excellence that has profoundly impacted countless lives, helping individuals achieve both personal and professional success.

After battling chronic fatigue that traditional medicine couldn't solve, Meredith discovered the transformative power of circadian rhythms and light.

| 69. The Divine Spark with George Mumford | 18 mars 2026 | 01:40:21 | |
Welcome back to the Compromised to Alchemized podcast. I am so excited to share this episode with you. In this episode, world-renowned psychologist and mindfulness performance expert George Mumford joins me to discuss the "Great Unlocking" - the idea that excellence is not something we build, but something we reveal by chipping away the blocks of fear, trauma, and survival mode. George Mumford, famous for his work with Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, shares his "Georgisms" on intuition and the "Eye of the Hurricane". We discuss how to turn "survival mode" into "growth mode" through the lens of the Four Aโs of Mindfulness. George defines success not as a destination, but as the "progressive realization of a worthy ideal." We discuss how to move beyond the "illusion of separateness" to see every human being as a masterpiece. Whether working with the elite athletes or high-risk youth, the mission remains the same: releasing the divine spark within.

In this conversation, I welcomes back Cherionna Menzam-Sills to discuss her latest book, The Prenatal Shadow. While many people focus on childhood or adult trauma, Cherionna highlights the profound, sentient experiences we have before birth. This episode explores the Prenatal Shadowโthe unconscious memories and survival templates formed in the wombโand how they influence our personality, health, and how we meet the world today.

| 64. The Science of Sound Healing: The Cymascope, Vagus Nerve Stimulation and Water Memory with John Stuart Reid | 11 fรฉvr. 2026 | 01:47:28 | |
What if you could see the geometry of your own voice? John Stuart Reid joins me to discuss the Cymascope, a revolutionary instrument that transforms sound into 3D visible structures in water. John shares his story in Egypt, his research into how sound heals the human body through piezoelectricity, and his findings on how dolphins communicate sonopictorially. The conversation then shifts to a life-altering discovery found within the music of Danish musicians Anders Holte & Cacina Meadu, website: https://www.anders-holte.com/. John explains how certain musical arrangements create sub-audible frequencies (5โ12 Hz) that directly stimulate the Vagus Nerve through the ears, offering a potential non-invasive cure for chronic inflammation. Whether you are a musician, a scientist, or a seeker of holistic healing, this episode reveals that the universe isn't just made of matterโit's made of organized, beautiful sound. Acoustics pioneer, professor John Stuart Reid, is a man on a mission to educate and inspire the world in the field of cymatics, the study of visible sound.

| 61. The Geometry of Being: From Nomadic Roots to the Intuitive Age with Harvey Martin | 21 janv. 2026 | 02:47:26 | |
In this expansive dialogue, I sit down with "Cowboy-Hippie-Philosopher" Harvey Martin. This conversation is a deep-map of a life lived at the intersection of high-performance athletics and mystical contemplation. From Harveyโs nomadic childhood in Michiganโmoving over 50 timesโto his front-row seat at the data revolution in Major League Baseball, this episode explores the invisible patterns (the geometry) that curate our consciousness. Harvey discusses his recent professional sabbatical, the ego death of stepping away from a successful business, and why the future of humanity lies not in more data, but in Heart Coherence and the Intuitive Age. ๐ Chapter Timestamps0:00 | Introduction and how we met 13:10 | How living in 50+ homes destroyed Harvey's attachment to place and turned him into a chameleonโsomeone capable of integrating into any culture with authenticity. 30:50 | Why your environment is the key to the pursuit of the slow down and why convenience is the enemy of the spirit. 41:50 | The Soul of the Sauna and how to change your awareness and consciousness. 60:20 | Why breathing is the unconscious environment we must make conscious. 1:06:32 | How shapes influence everything and how Harvey used sacred geometry during his sabbatical to map out the human ego and the breaking of illusions. 1:16:21 | Mapping the body through geometry. The heart serves as the center point between our three physical bodies (root, sacral, solar plexus) and our three mental bodies (throat, third eye, crown). 1:40:21 | Harvey reflects on his time in the MLB, witnessing how an over-reliance on data can cause elite performers to lose their subjective abstract self. 1:50:36 | Why the billion-dollar youth sports industry is incapable of teaching mastery because it relies on scripts rather than uniqueness and why a true teacher doesn't provide answers but holds space for the student to explore their own uniqueness. 1:58:21 | Harvey posits that wisdom can only be reached through abstract contemplationโsomething AI cannot replicate. 2:04:31 | Someone that has inspired Harvey by living their personal legend 2:11:55 | Harvey recounts a 10-year journey of trying to change the medical system for his father, only to realize the most courageous act is simply being oneself. 2:20:13 | Harvey's personal legend and how he knows he is on track Harvey Martin is an entrepreneur and coach for high performers such as professional athletes, musicians, and entrepreneurs. In 2012, he began teaching courses related to health and fitness at Minnesota State University, Mankato, where he received his masterโs degree. His services included consulting college athletic programs around the country, for instance, Ohio State and Oregon State University, in mental skills and organizational behavior. During this time, he spent eight seasons in the Milwaukee Brewers organization as a player and scout for both professional and amateur players. In 2020, his services expanded to organizations like the Carolina Hurricanes, Seattle Mariners, and San Francisco Giants. He began facilitating sessions with USA Olympic teams, NFL groups such as the Houston Texans and Pittsburgh Steelers. His work stretched to major bands like Rufus Du Sol and in 2025, he was the Performance Coach on the Upside Down Tour with the artist Mike Seander "Mike.โ. During three Major League Baseball Seasons (2022-2024), Harvey was the Major League Human Performance Coach for the San Francisco Giants, where he oversaw the team's recovery systems and mental skills programming. Individually, he has worked with numerous MVPs and All-Stars across all major sports as well as Stanley Cup, Super Bowl, and World Series Champions. His work has been featured in major publications such as The New York Times, Sports Illustrated, AP News, and The Athletic. He has spoken and led workshops with several Fortune 500 companies, and through creative endeavors, hosted over 300 interviews with top athletes, doctors, authors, and entrepreneurs. While publishing two books, Breathe, Focus, Excel: Exercises, Techniques, and Strategies for Optimal Athletic Performance and Without Words: Mastering the Art of Being. ๐ Resources Mentioned

We explore the often-overlooked root causes of chronic pain and why traditional stretching and strengthening often fails to provide lasting relief. For nearly two decades, I have studied how tension forms in the body long before pain ever appears. In this episode, I describe my Phase Shift workโa unique bodywork approach that looks at embryology, fascia, and the nervous system to unlock rigid, or frozen areas of the body by returning to their origin. In This Episode, We Discuss:0:00 | Introduction 20:02 | Phase Shift Work: Unlocking hardened areas (like a stuck sacrum or tight calves) by addressing the developmental origin of the tension. 25:03 | The 60% Statistic: Why an estimated 60% of people now struggle with tongue ties or airway issues compared to previous generations. 30:10 | Chewing for Development: How our modern liquid/soft diet contributes to narrow palates and why chewing is vital for enzymatic activation and detoxification. 56:29 | The Diaphragm/Kidney Connection: The diaphragm forms in the throat around week 5. If a tongue tie is present, it creates a "spiral of restriction" that binds the right side of the diaphragm and the right kidney in nearly 99% of cases. 58:12 | The Tongue Press: A breakdown of my daily routine, including vocalizations and "tongue meditation" to free the floor of the mouth and ground the nervous system. 1:02:22 | The "Floor of Four": My distilled system focusing on the four main areasโhead, throat, sides, and feetโthat can trigger a total body phase shift when unlocked. 1:04:47 | Tongue Meditation 1:20:20 | How to discover your gifts with Tracy Duhs 1:33:15 | How curiosity can help you through a tough time Connect with Tracy:

| 55. Breathe Easier, Live Better: Unlocking Airway Health with Greg Mc Lean | 10 dรฉc. 2025 | 01:30:18 | |
Welcome back to the Compromised to Alchemized podcast. In this episode I chat with Greg Mc Lean, a leading expert and educator whose mission is to demystify the complex connection between our breathing, sleep, jaw, nasal function, and overall health. Greg provides both virtual and in-person support, helping people around the world optimize their fundamental life function: breathing. This conversation gets into the "nitty gritty" of what both Greg and I meticulously investigate in our respective practices. We reflect on the amazing training Greg hosted for my "Floor of the Mouth" course in Arizona this summer, where I was able to witness the transformative impact of his work firsthand. Greg shares his personal journeyโa fascinating pivot from electrical engineering and firefighting to becoming a dedicated movement and breathing trainer. He opens up about his childhood health struggles with asthma, his critical discovery of hypermobility, and his personal legend. Greg has the unique ability to take diverse concepts from disciplines like yoga, sports' specific training, physical therapy, traditional weight lifting, and boxing, and combine them into a hybrid style of training. The core principle of his method is building a strong body from the core outward. He believes that once every joint is strong and flexible, clients achieve a balanced fitness program and a body ready to handle any challenge. Key Timestamps:

In this deeply moving and essential episode, I sit down with two incredible voices in the birth world: Dr. Stuart James Fischbein, MD, and Blyss Young, LM, CPM. This conversation tackles the most difficult and unexpected birth scenarios, focusing on how birth professionals and families can navigate loss and trauma with integrity and compassion. Dr. Stu and Blyss courageously reflect on a challenging breech birth they assisted together, prompting a crucial discussion on managing high-stakes situations. ๐จ DISCLAIMER: This episode discusses loss, grief, and a very difficult birth experience. Listener discretion is advised. We dive into the power of storytellingโhow sharing our birth narratives influences care, challenges rigid hierarchies, and ultimately makes all the difference when conflict arises. We also explore the roles of midwives as guides, the expansion of regulatory agencies, and the importance of cognitive resonance in the birth space.

| 53. Harmonic Egg Inventor Gail Lynn on Healing Yourself with Sound, Light & Frequency Healing Technology | 26 nov. 2025 | 01:13:03 | |
In this fascinating episode, I sit down with the inventor, and pioneer in frequency healing, Gail Lynn. Gail is celebrated for her groundbreaking creation, the Harmonic Eggยฎ and the LiFTโข light capsule, helping to foster a beautiful shift in personal wellness. I share my personal, immersive experience inside the Harmonic Egg, and Gail takes us through her incredible journey of intuition, insight, and intention that led to its invention. The Harmonic Egg is a wooden, egg-shaped, resonant chamber designed with Tesla mathematics, sacred geometry, and the Golden Mean Ratio (a dodecagon shape!). It uses sound, color, and lightโspecifically, consciously curated music pieces and custom color selectionsโto create high-frequency vibrational experiences. While you recline in a zero-gravity chair, the vibrational energy builds within the chamber, connecting with your Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) to allow the natural, homeodynamic healing of mind, body, and spirit. Tune in to understand the mechanics of this self-evolving energy technology and learn how we can build resilience in our own lives! ๐ Key Topics & Time Stamps

| 52. Beyond the Tongue Tie Release: Bodywork, Post-Release Care, and the Mother-Baby Ecosystem | 19 nov. 2025 | 01:47:14 | |
Welcome to a deeply insightful episode of Compromised to Alchemized with the phenomenal Jennifer Tow! Jennifer has dedicated over 35 years to holistic lactation, guided by a deep curiosity about the physiology of wellness. She is a pioneer in integrating epigenetics, the microbiome, gut-brain health, and oral functional competency into lactation care. Jennifer has practiced holistic lactation and guided parents in raising their children holistically for over 35 years. A fascination with the physiology of wellness has led her on a decades-long journey exploring the many influences on infant health that come to define long-term human well-being. She has a particular interest in epigenetics and the microbiome, gut-brain health, oral functional competency and airway development, always seeking to understand and apply the profoundly far-reaching implications of this work for breastfeeding dyads. While residing between the USA & France from 2010-12, Jennifer established an international client base, becoming adept at providing care virtually, a process that ultimately honed both her listening and observational skills and resulted in a flourishing global practice. With a Master's degree in Holistic Health Coaching, Jennifer's reputation for guiding parents through complex breastfeeding challenges is deeply grounded in her approach to the breastfeeding dyad as a complex, interdependent eco-system, resulting in her Heal the Mother, Heal the Babyโข philosophy of care. Jennifer is an avid learner, integrating numerous holistic modalities and an ever-expanding skill-set into her practice, focusing on the nutritional, environmental and cultural factors that influence milk production and overall wellness of the dyad, myofunctional therapy and bodywork. Jennfier is a writer and lecturer, offering workshops internationally and via webinar on lactation & epigenetics, gut health & healing, tongue-tie & airway development and holistic lactation practices. She offers a year-long advanced course in Integrative and Holistic Lactation. She is a founding member of IATP (the International Affiliation of Tongue-tie Professionals) and founder of the Holistic Lactation Institute. Jennifer is the mother of three children born at home in 1988, 92 & 98 and a granddaughter born at home in 2009. She has come to deeply embrace the wisdom and humility gained from gestating, birthing, nursing and parenting those three amazing human beings. In this conversation, we dive into the complexities of tongue tie, the power of intuition, and how embracing a multi-disciplinary approach is the key to lasting wellness for the dyad. On the Episode

| Healing from Clubfoot: A Mother's 100,000 mile Journey to Creating The Bennett Method with Brooke Nicole Brown | 17 sept. 2025 | 01:03:52 | |
Join me on this inspiring episode of Compromised to Alchemized as I sit down with Brooke Nicole Brown the creator of The Bennett Method. From an early age, Brooke Brown knew she possessed a special gift for healing. "You have healing hands," her mother would often tell her, words that proved prophetic when her third son, Bennett, was born with severe bilateral clubfoot. This sparked an extraordinary journey spanning 100,000 miles across 20 states, consulting with over 35 practitioners and doctors. Her exhaustive search led to something unexpected - the development of her own revolutionary healing approach called the Bennett Method. The Bennett Method is a comprehensive, non-invasive methodology combining six essential disciplines: Craniosacral Fascial Therapy, Dynamic Flex Casting, Primitive Reflex Therapy, French Functional Method, Floor of the Mouth techniques, and targeted nutrition. Today, Bennett runs, jumps, and plays like any other child, a living testament to his mother's dedication. As a licensed massage therapist with extensive specialized training, Brooke now works with children facing developmental challenges including tongue and lip ties, torticollis, reflux, feeding difficulties, and sensory-motor development issues, with particular passion for expecting mothers and newborns. Brooke's approach uniquely blends professional expertise with maternal understanding, creating nurturing environments where families feel truly supported. Her practice is grounded in scientific principles yet guided by Biblical truth and the Holy Spirit. "Every child's journey is different," Brooke says, "but every mother's hope is the same, to see their child thrive." Through gentle techniques and unwavering dedication, she demonstrates that remarkable healing is possible, offering hope and practical solutions to families seeking the best for their children. In our conversation, we focus on Brooke's incredible journey with her son and the powerful healing principles she discovered along the way. In this episode, we discuss:

| Intuition, Airway, and the Power of Personal Experience with Dr. Janelle Lee | 13 aoรปt 2025 | 01:09:17 | |
In this powerful episode, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Janelle Lee, a board-certified pediatric dentist and the founder of Elevate Tongue Tie & Airway Center in Chandler, Arizona. But this isn't your typical dental conversation. Dr. Lee shares her deeply personal journey of how intuition has been a guiding force in her career, helping her see beyond a child's teeth to the critical role of their airway. Dr. Lee attended my Floor Of The Mouth Tour in Arizona and Dr. Leeโs story is a testament to the power of listening to your gut. After years of treating patients, she discovered her own struggles with undiagnosed sleep-disordered breathing and restrictive tongue and lip ties. This personal revelation didnโt just change her lifeโit transformed her practice. She now uses her lived experience to connect with and advocate for patients whose symptoms are often overlooked or misunderstood. We dive into:
This episode is a must-listen for parents, healthcare professionals, and anyone who has ever felt that something was "off" with their own health or their childโs. Guest Bio: Dr. Janelle Lee is a board-certified pediatric dentist, airway advocate, and provider of early palatal expansion and tethered oral tissue releases (tongue, lip, and cheek ties). She is the founder and owner of Elevate Tongue Tie & Airway Center in Chandler, Arizona, and surrounding areas. With a lifelong passion for helping children and adults achieve optimal oral and whole body health, Dr. Lee is especially devoted to educating families about the critical role of airway development, nasal breathing, and proper oral muscle function. She believes that to breathe well is to live well, a principle that guides every aspect of her care. Over her 17 year career in clinical dentistry, she developed a special interest in screening, guiding, and treating children with signs of sleep disordered breathing. Dr. Leeโs commitment to this work is deeply personal. After struggling for years with undiagnosed sleep-disordered breathing, she discovered her own restrictive tongue and lip ties after completing dental school, pediatric residency, and practicing dentistry for over a decade. Her lived experience allows her to connect with and advocate for patients whose symptoms may be overlooked or misunderstood. She is passionate about early identification and intervention for issues related to oral restrictions, jaw development, and sleep quality. Elevate Tongue Tie & Airway Center was founded during Dr. Leeโs tenure as the founder and owner of Bloom Pediatric Dentistry, as her passion for airway health deepened and her vision for a dedicated space to support families in this journey began to take shape. After an extraordinary journey growing Bloom as a start-up practice, Dr. Lee stepped away from her role at Bloom and made the decision to transition fully into airway-focused care for patients of all ages with Elevate.ย Dr. Lee is a lifelong learner and remains active in continuing education, regularly attending courses in airway health, jaw development, laser therapy, and tethered oral tissues. She strongly believes in a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach and works closely with myofunctional therapists, IBCLCs, bodyworkers, and other functional specialists to ensure the best outcomes for her patients. The namesake of Elevate reflects Dr. Leeโs mission to help her patients live life unrestricted: breathing better, sleeping better, and elevated to their highest potential.

| Floor of the Mouth 101 (The Floor Four) | 06 aoรปt 2025 | 00:29:48 | |
Welcome back everyone! In this episode of Compromised to Alchemized, I dive into my passion for working with the floor of the mouth and its incredible connection to the rest of the body. I'll break down what the floor of the mouth is and introduce my "Floor Four"โa distilled version of my comprehensive floor of the mouth protocol. I've categorized and defined over 70 areas of the body that are connected to the floor of the mouth, but in this episode, I'll simplify it for you. The goal isn't to fix floor of the mouth tension directly; rather, it's to use the tension we find there as a window into what's happening throughout the entire body. By understanding these connections, we can begin to address the root causes of the issues people are experiencing and unlock and integrate them. I'll walk you through:
